Final Preperations Underway....



I spent the weekend out and about with my little helpers, placing signs for the ride.  Please watch for signs that indicate the parking areas, which will be manned (womaned?) by the helpful parking and registration elves, who will get you to sign the waiver, pay the $20 fee, and get you parked and ready to start your day with us.


The basic trails will be groomed to help you navigate the area that we are able to ride.  Much has been "loaned" to us by neighbouring farms to allow much more riding area than usual.   Most fields with trails groomed into them can also be ridden freely, allowing you to bust your own trail....the groomed areas are to just help you get familiar with which fields are able to be used.

In the area marked "VIEW HILL"  please avoid any areas where the vegitation is visible through the snow cover.  This is a great riding area with amazing views (take note shutterbugs!)  But this year there is winter wheat under the snow, and our neighbour who kindly lets us ride there has requested that we not damage the crop by riding where the snow is thin (it tends to blow off the very top of the hill)

Sleds can be dropped off ahead of time at the ride, Saturday morning the gates for the parking areas will open at 8am.  Grab a hearty breakfast, and come start a great day of riding with us!
